What is a Drive Shaft? A drive shaft is a component for transmitting mechanical power and torque and rotation, usually used to connect other components of a drivetrain that cannot be connected directly because of distance or the need to allow for relative movement between them. As torque carriers, drive shafts are subject to torsion

Phosphor Bronze is one of the world’s oldest metal alloys, dating back almost 4,000 years. The material is well known for its strength, durability, low coefficient of friction and its fine grain. The Phosphorus acts as a de-oxidant, reduces viscosity and therefore improves fluidity, while increasing stiffness and wear resistance. Bespoke Bronze Bush Bronte Precision
